Hi,

Lucky Juliette's gone travelling for a few months, so (lucky us) have top TV dietitian, Lyndel Costain taking over Diet Bytes and other diet news reports. However Juliette did leave something behind to help us through the summer, and it's the best Eating Out Guide we've seen, covering food from nine countries. Enjoy.

Best wishes, Pat
